I got back from the Bahamas yesterday afternoon around 5. It was a great trip, and the resort was really nice. I stayed at Atlantis, and it’s almost a self-contained city. They have 5 hotels on the property, four of which are almost Vegas-size. Two of the larger towers have what looks like a huge crosswalk connecting them, and it’s actually a 2500 sq ft. room that Opera and Michael Jackson reportedly frequent. It can be had for a mere $25K/night.
The property has around 30 restaurants, and many of them are Vegas and NY favorites. I ate a Nobu which was excellent, and another restaurant on the property where scenes from the latest Bond movie were filmed. There’s a Vegas-style casino, complete with Chaholie (sp?) glasswork reminiscent of the Bellagio and a complete water park with pools and slides everywhere.
Oprah and Chihuly. sounds like a sweet trip.
